OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind.  In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships."  OPSEC is everyone's responsibility. 

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Yes my son is in Ship 07 Div 011. Did you get your letter today?  We got ours today.

 

I am still waiting on my letter, my son shipped out on October 6th. I am so anxious to get his address so I can get these letters to him!

 

Stay strong Navy Moms!

You should be getting your letter soon. Our son shipped out on Oct. 4th.  We mailed our first letters to him today.
Yes I was so happy to have recieved the letter. He probably wrote about a paragraph on the back lol. He said they were only allowed 6 min to write. He seems to be doing okay. He is homesick but thats to be expected. He is in good spirits he still has a sense of humor lol. cant wait to see him on Dec 2nd. We got our plane tickets yesterday!!!
Adam's Mom, where did you and your husband get your shirts?  I would like to order some for my husband and I but I have not been able to find nice ones.
Hi, I ordered them online at navygear.com

I just found out from my son's recruiter his address.  He is Ship 07 Div 11.  We have not heard from him and have not received any mail.  His family and friends are anxious to hear from him and hope he is doing well!

 

Join the group, PIR 12/02/2011 - TG 03 — 11 Divisions (009–016, 802, 803 & 903) (clickable link), to connect with others with loved ones who are training with your SR.  There is also a discussion within that group for this division.
